I have to find the area of a kite. I am only given part of the longest diagonal (12 cm) and half of the other diagonal (9 cm). I know the formula is diagonal 1 times diagonal 2 times 1/2. I have the length for one diagonal which is 18 cm b/c 9+9. How can find the length of the short part of the long diagonal (12). Any help is appreciated

Sorry, my question is worded confusingly. so, there are two diagonals on the kite. the shortest diagonal is 18 cm total. the longest diagonal has only part of the length given which is 12 cm, I need to find the length of the other part. is there any way that I can post a picture of the figure?
